"Our destination is renowned for its hard-knuckle convicts and escapades, wartime shipbuilding, dry docks and slipways... But mostly we're going to push down pegs and try what, in time, may become one of the great camping experiences of the world. Cockatoo Island's old plate yard on its north apron opened at Easter as a campground, with plush facilities and million-dollar views up and down the harbour."
Dugald Jellie, "Camp Under the Cranes", Sydney Morning Herald, 25 April 2008
"Luckily for us, Cockatoo Island Camping turned out to be camping 101 with bells on... we were soon welded to our deckchairs (which came complete with stubbie holders) and sipping cold beers bought from the one-site cafe, while watching the turquoise sky melt into burnt orange. We were in camping heaven."
Siobhan Doran, "Pitch Perfect Harbour Island Getaway", Sun Herald 27 April 2008
"It has to be one of the finest experiences a Sydneysider can have - to pitch a tent in the centre of our working Harbour and contemplate the history that made it what it is today. "
Saffron Howden "Bush Camping on Sydney Harbour's Cockatoo Island", Daily Telegraph 3 April 2008
